Arlin Sorensen built a small business and grew it into a multi-location network that influenced scores of businesses across the world.
Here are some of his thoughts on leadership, life, and priorities:
- You cannot lead if you do not plan, hope is not a plan.
- We need a business plan (where your company is going,) leadership plan (how we're going to lead people,) life plan, and a legacy plan (start here - with the end in mind.)
- Once you have a legacy plan in place, you can put your leadership, life, and business plans together - these plans all need to be written down!
- Core values are the foundation around your legacy plan. They do not change over time
- Your personal legacy - one thing we can be sure of.... you're doing to die (and someone is going to have to clean up your mess.) We need to prepare for this today.
- Your business legacy - "If something happens document".... what is your business plan for disaster recovery and business continuity (key people lost.)
- And much much more...
